Belle and Sebastian - Born to Act: Ukulele Chords

           F                             A#  F
There's A girl on the floor, she dances way out
         Dm                       A#  F
She's a snub nose beauty, she's a no doubt
          A#                  D#   A#
But if I talk to her, I even Look hard
           F                               C
She'll be out of this place and she'll be out
of my life.

We busted a move, we got the hell out
We got stories to tell, we got our whole life
We drink coffee till late because we jet lagged
We put a fortune into the greatest
music machine in the land

Chorus:
Dm                A
Play a wonderful song to me and it's
               Dm
better than a date
                         A
Play the tune where the girl sings high
                D#
She's my lover surrogate
                     G#
And the waitress is rolling by, shining high
              D#
Smiling for a tip
                    C
Every boy dreams of it

So the girl dances in, she takes the next booth
I break the rule of my life, I make a, a big move
'Cause my accent is funny, got a, a head start
If you wanna make good, you got to
use what you got

We go with her friends and there’s a, a big crowd
There’s a girl who can’t stand up
till she falls down
There’s a pressure that’s building
and it’s too late
'Cause she leaves in the morning,
there’s a flight, it’s a family affair

Chorus:
Play a wonderful song to me and it’s
better than a date
Play the tune where the girl sings high,
she’s my lover surrogate
And the waitresses rolling by,
shining high, smiling for a tip
Every boy dreams of it

Hey, play a wonderful song to me and
it’s better than a date
Play the tune where the girl sings high,
she’s my lover surrogate
And the waitresses rolling by,
shining high, smiling for a tip
Every boy dreams of it

So we met a month later, she had a long hair
She was driving the bus I paid the full fare
It was easy to talk and she drove real fast
And she told me the story of her dirty old past

All the boys she had loved and all the bad sex
All the things she must learn and all her prospects
I was there for the ride and for the old soul
But we couldn’t go further, no we couldn’t go
But we couldn’t go further, no we couldn’t go
But we couldn’t go further
'cause the story was already told
